Questions / instructions:
Place chime bars F and G and beater in front of student.
When you hit chime bars they make a sound. These two chime bars make different sounds. Play them now so that you can hear the sounds they make.
After student has played each chime bar, place glass tumbler and jug of water in front of student.
When you tip water into a glass and hit the side of the glass, it makes a sound. You can change the sound by changing the amount of water in the glass.
Temporarily remove the F chime bar from the student.
In this activity you are going to tip water into the glass to make a sound. First, try to make the same sound as you hear when you play the G chime bar. When you are putting water into the glass you will need to keep checking the sound by hitting the side of the glass AND the chime bar. If you think there is too much water in the glass you can tip some back into the jug. When you think they are both making the same sound, tell me.
